House Sitting in Saranap

“Rachael is absolutely amazing! She stayed at our home for the week and took such great care of our dogs. They got plenty of walks, and her thoughtful updates (with pictures and videos!) really helped put us at ease while we were away. She clearly knows a lot about dog behavior and handled our big pups so well, even though they can be a handful .. at times 😝 We came home to happy dogs and a spotless house, it was perfect!! I’m so grateful we found her and can confidently say she’s our go to dog sitter from now on. Thank you so much, Rachael :)”

“We are so grateful for Tania! She came through for us (on a holiday none the less) and took wonderful care of our dog while we were away. She was thoughtful and communicative and immediately put us at ease. Our dog loved her and even upon her departure he ran out to see if she was still here. We are so appreciative and look forward to booking with her again.”

“Vicki did a phenomenal job taking care of our boy Mylo. Mylo had to get some emergency stitches the day before we were going out of town. Vicki handled his care perfectly, sent us regular updates and dealt with all the drama that comes with Mylo having to wear a cone. We cannot thank her enough and absolutely would recommend her to everyone else.”

“Mia was great. Not only did the pups love her but we did too. She provided constant updates and made us feel very comfortable knowing the dogs were being well taken care of. I will 100% be using Mia again!”

“Allison totally came through for us. We added a third dog at the last minute (a large puppy even!) and she was willing to take all three dogs, two weekends in a row. Everyone seemed quite content when we came home. Will definitely use her great dog sitting services again!”

Eileen L.

“Courtney took such great care of our fur babies and our home. She was our housesitter and stayed overnight with our two dogs and cat. Our youngest dog was nervous and refused to eat, but Courtney didn’t panic and was very communicative with us. We have already booked her again!”

About: Hello, my name is Emily and I would love to help you with your animal care needs. I have been around animals throughout my life and have always really enjoyed each unique personality. For my own pets, I have experience with (some would say) difficult animals but have always persevered. Whether it be my crazy cocker spaniel, high energy cattledogs, or hissy maine coon, I am up for any challenge. Every size, shape, color, personality... they are all so cute and have the sweetest hearts. I am responsible and dependable, and you can count on me to treat your pets with the same gentle care you would provide. I currently have a pretty flexible schedule and am therefore available most days and times for walks and drop-in visits. My booking availability reflects my current schedule. I care for all pets with kindness and patience. I know that animals may have anxiety with other people and I take that into account when caring for your loved pet.

“When I returned from vacation, everything was fantastic; the dogs were happy, and he went above and beyond, spending extra time playing with them!”

“Trevor is wonderful! He stayed with our dogs over Xmas and not only took great care of ours dogs but also our house! With all the rain and muddy paws he had to deal with, our house was clean without a paw print in site! He is a great communicator and very responsive to text. Best of all the dogs love him. Our older dog who does not like to walk with anyone outside our family, walks with him happily! 5 stars across the board! Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets for my whole life- cats, dogs, bunnies- you name it! I’ll 100% treat your pets as if they were my own! I just graduated, and am looking to pet sit during my time at DVC! My availability is very flexible and I can’t wait to start pet sitting! I will follow directions! Any tasks that need to be done around the house (Ex: bringing in the mail/packages, watering plant) I am more than happy to do!

“This is our second time working with Diana and we can’t recommend her enough. Our old dogs can be pretty high maintenance, but she does a great job caring for them when we’re away. Thank you!”

Molly R.

“Destiny and Treonna were awesome! They took great care of all of our pets and our house. Destiny was a good communicator and texted us each day with an update and pictures. I would highly recommend them.”

Danna P.

“Tina was an amazing overnight dog sitter at our house! My dog is a rescue and is very nervous around other animals, so we have to have the dog sitter stay at our house when we can't take our dog with us. However, she warmed right up to Tina and they had a great time together. It was a 4 day overnight job. Tina was wonderful about sending updates and pictures, and she was detail oriented in giving medications. Will definitely use her again!”

Christie J.

“She took the best care imaginable of my little munchkin. I was out of the country with no phone access, so knowing that she was sending me reports and loving my girl made me feel so relieved.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up with two cats and a dog. Today, I have two cats of my own and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. As a graduate student in Counseling Psychology, I value patience, responsibility, communication, and attentiveness. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, or extra attention while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands. I’m currently a graduate student in Counseling Psychology, and my class schedule varies by semester. Most of my classes take place in the evenings between 4:00 PM and 10:00 PM, which leaves me available during many daytime hours for pet care, walks, and drop-in visits. I’m also available on weekends with advance notice, although my weekend availability can vary depending on personal and school commitments. I do my best to communicate clearly and respond promptly so we can find a schedule that works well for you and your pet. I understand that trust is one of the most important parts of pet care. When caring for pets, I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and any special instructions so they feel comfortable and secure. I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos while you’re away. As a lifelong pet owner and current cat parent, I know how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your animals. I will always treat your pets and home with respect and care.

About: I'm free most days (except 12:30-3:30), I have always been dogs & cats around my life I've taken care of 5, and I can do as long as needed dog walks I'm free any day (except 12:30-3:30 PM) I can stay overnight too if needed. I am very flexible with my routine. With dogs I am always out so I take them on daily walks, even outdoor ones like hikes, I am very aware of my surroundings while walking them.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I am skilled in training puppies and providing gentle care for the elderly :) Can teach your pup how to sit, lay down, wait, stay on their spot, and even how to shake your paws on it! c: I’m currently working part-time on the weekends, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your beloved. I am available for walks, drop-ins, and house sits all day on Mon-Wed; on Thu-Fri I am available from 8AM-3PM; Saturdays and Sundays can be negotiated :) When caring for your pet in your home I will maintain their exact daily routine, memorize home logistics, note the primary veterinarian info, respect any off-limit areas for the pet and myself, clean up if needed, care for the pet’s physical safety, and provide you with consistent photo or text updates as requested :)

About: I'm a retired officer, background-checked through Rover, and have more than 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as friends', family members', and clients' pets. Throughout my career and personal life, responsibility, trustworthiness, and attention to detail have always been important to me, and I bring those same qualities to every pet I care for. In 2016, I adopted Barney the Shih Tzu, followed by Jack in 2019. Both were estimated to be about four years old at the time. In 2025, Jack passed away from bone cancer, giving me firsthand experience caring for a senior dog with significant medical needs. In 2022, I rescued Penny, the white pup in my profile photo. Certifications & Experience • Cat & Dog First Aid (American Red Cross) • Experience administering oral medications • Experience caring for senior pets and pets with special needs • Experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages, sizes, and temperaments, including a large Rottweiler I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and individualized care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, senior and slower-paced, or simply happiest sticking to a familiar routine, my goal is to provide dependable care while helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I'm home much of the time. This allows me to provide regular companionship, potty breaks, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. Because I intentionally limit the number of pets I care for at one time, I am able to provide a more personalized level of attention and maintain a calmer environment for the pets in my care. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I strive to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. Consistency helps pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed while their owners are away. My schedule is generally flexible, allowing me to accommodate a variety of care needs, including daycare, overnight care, drop-in visits, and pet sitting in a client's home. Pick-up and drop-off service may be available depending on distance and scheduling. My dogs are part of the family and spend much of their time relaxing near us, on the furniture, or curled up on a lap. Visiting pets are treated with the same level of care, attention, and companionship while in my home. Dogs are welcome on furniture unless owners request otherwise. I intentionally limit the number of guest dogs I accept at one time to help create a calm, safe, and low-stress environment. This allows me to provide close supervision and a more personalized experience than many high-volume pet care settings. If you prefer your dog to be crated for sleeping, feeding, or when unattended, I'm happy to accommodate as long as a crate is provided. Visiting dogs should be reasonably housebroken, with exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis for puppies and special circumstances. Meet-and-greets are strongly preferred whenever possible before services begin. They allow me to learn about your pet's personality, needs, and comfort level while helping determine whether my home and care style are a good fit. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the owner's home, providing dependable care, companionship, exercise, and attentive supervision. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, consistency, and respect. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable environment where pets can feel relaxed, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.

“Isaiah stayed at my house with my two dogs for a long weekend. 10/10 would absolutely recommend and definitely plan on using him again in the future. Isaiah was very responsive and sent daily picture/updates. I felt extremely comfortable and at ease knowing he was taking great care of my fur babes. He left the house in great condition and was very respectful.”

“Wonderful pet sitter. She’s very responsive, performed medicine to our 21 year old cat and sent wonderful videos. This is the first time we have used Jordyn and couldn’t be more satisfied!”
